Texas candidate (R) wrote racy romance novel

Texas candidate wrote racy romance novel
By LIZ AUSTIN PETERSON, Associated Press Writer Tue Oct 24, 7:36 PM ET
AUSTIN, Texas - The willowy brunette laughed heartily, lustily, as she dismissed the notion that her romance novel full of steamy sex scenes crossed the line into pornography.


"Everybody thinks it's fun," said Susan Combs, who happens to be Texas agriculture commissioner and is now running for state comptroller, the top financial post. "It's lighthearted and entertaining."

Combs, a 61-year-old Republican who champions abstinence education and is a darling of Texas conservatives, is being portrayed by her Democratic opponent as a smutmonger and a hypocrite for writing a 1990 bodice-ripper titled "A Perfect Match."

2. There's getting to be a long, long list
of porno novels written by Repukes. I can't remember what all of them are, but I know there's Lynn Cheney's lesbian love novel, and something by O'Loofah, and one by Scooter Libby. Then there's that candidate who wrote about sleeping with the Green Bay Packers in the 60's.
